Potato and Cheese Flatbreads
Description
Perfectly suited for tea and coffee. Potatoes are used here in a small amount to bind the filling well. As for the cheese, it’s better to take a larger amount. I recommend combining hard and soft cheese, then the filling will be rich in flavors and have a soft texture. Moreover, you can always diversify the filling with herbs or spices, for example. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
